My Project

My 4th graders are full of curiosity and creativity, making each day in the classroom a joy. With a spiral book binding machine, they can turn their ideas into tangible books and a memorable yearbook.

This resource will empower them to create polished projects, enhancing their literacy skills and fostering a love for storytelling.

We have been folding paper to create picture books while reading them aloud to our younger buddies. Another goal for this project is to be able to create a yearbook together with everyone.

What sets my students apart is their boundless imagination and unique perspectives. Providing them with this tool will not only boost their academic growth but also nurture their confidence and creativity.
